In 2022, inflation will reach record highs and to compensate for the lack of purchasing power, some SMEs choose to increase wages by their employees.

This is a major problem for many employees: inflation. Faced with an increase in price recordssome companies prefer to index wages to the rate of inflation. In an SME specializing in cosmetics, the salary increases by 3%, to the delight of the employees. “It’s between 50 and 60 euros increase that allows me to meet certain needs of my children”noted an employee. This increase is reflected only for workers who are not managers in this company.

For the creator of the company, it was an essential gesture for her employees, in particular to combat the increase in the price of gasoline and diesel. “The car is essential to come to us (…) We come from the city to come to the countryside so we have no public transport solution”noted Leatitia From Wallefounder of the company Lamazuna.
